Video of The Quest @ SCIL

The Quest is a curriculum platform designed for Stage 4 learning (Year 8). The curriculum platform is developed around a grid based on an understanding of the work of Bloom’s taxonomy and Gardner’s multiple intelliengences. It draws from the science, history and geography curricula. The Quest platform enables teachers to integrate different curricula into a self-directed ‘Quest’ for the students, which in itself enhances the work undertaken by students over the previous five years. Teachers have very intentionally placed the curriculum into a framework that is as much about 21st century learning skills, as it is mandated state-mandated content. SCIL/NBCS draws from the work of www.p21.org as it seeks to create engaging and relevant curriculum experiences for students in a learning continuum from primary years, through middle years to senior years.
